Volume 1 Chapter 0091 Ueto Masami
"It's simple. Whether it's here or in your country, most of the time, it's the mother who cooks, right?
It’s just that there are too many semi-finished products in your country’s diet, and the tastes of different families are too similar, so you can’t feel the unique taste of your own mother.”
"Happiness?"
"Not only that, in addition to happiness, there is also a sense of security. In our words, home is a harbor, a harbor for wanderers returning from afar, a harbor for lonely souls to anchor."
"I don't have much experience with the feeling you are talking about. I don't spend much time with my family."
"sorry."
"It's OK!" Scarlett shrugged.
If you don't get together with your family often, there are many possibilities. It may be due to the nature of your parents' work, or it may be because of your relationship problems.
However, when Nan Yi saw the 1920s Art Deco diamond-studded ladies' watch on Scarlett's left hand, he thought that the possibility of a relationship discord was greater.
This watch is not cheap. Most people can’t afford it even if they save one dollar for their entire life.
"By the way, I don't have any red wine, but I have soda. Do you want some?" Nan Yi asked in order to ease the embarrassment.
"No, I don't drink carbonated drinks. I need to stay in shape."
"You are in great shape, you really need to maintain it."
During their conversation, Nan Yi and Scarlett did not discuss any in-depth topics, but rather just kept to the surface.
It can be said that this was the first time that the two of them had formal contact. Such things as close friendships and deep feelings can only be seen in idol dramas that deliberately lower the IQ of the audience to give them a sense of superiority.
After dinner, the two had a cup of coffee. Nan Yi then sent Scarlett to make a phone call and waited with her for the hotel car to pick her up.
After she got in the car, he returned to the old house alone.
Nan Yi usually doesn't stay in school during evening self-study time. He has already mastered everything he wanted to learn in school, and he needs to spend more time studying the knowledge he wants to learn.
I walked back to the old house and checked the early warning device, but found nothing wrong.
Nan Yi moved a stool and sat in the yard. He smoked a cigarette and read the book page by page, enjoying the yellow light of the incandescent lamp hanging on the prefabricated rainproof platform on top of the gate.
June 17th, the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, is the Dragon Boat Festival.
It was drizzling, and Nan Yi was standing outside the wall of the small western-style building with an umbrella, occasionally looking at the vehicles passing by on the road opposite him.
In twenty-two minutes, five cars drove past, three jeeps and two Ladas.
At 20:05, another Lada drove towards him. This car did not slowly move away like the previous five cars, but stopped not far from Nan Yi.
The car door opened and a woman got out from the back seat. She was wearing a thin women's business suit on the upper body and a skirt on the lower body that barely covered her knees. She was wearing a pair of black low-heeled leather shoes on her feet, and a few splashes of water were created when she stepped on the ground.
The woman didn't bring an umbrella, so she covered her head with the briefcase. She glanced towards Nan Yi, and then looked behind Nan Yi.
Following her gaze, she saw the house number of an old western-style building.
It was raining heavily, and the woman was getting wet. But Nan Yi stood there unmoved until the woman walked up to him and asked, "President Nan?"
"you are late."
"Hai, Smi Masai."
The woman bowed slightly to Nan Yi and said apologetically.
"follow me."
Nan Yi turned around and walked in front. The woman looked at his back and hurried to follow.
"sit."
Walking into the living room, Nan Yi pointed at the sofa in the living room, then walked into his room, found a white shirt that he had never worn, and a pair of casual pants that he had never worn.
"There is a bathroom on the second floor. There is no hot water. Bring two hot water bottles up there. You can wash up and use the blue towel. That one is new and no one has used it."
"Hayi!"
The woman stood up and bowed again, took the clothes from Nan Yi's hand, followed the direction Nan Yi pointed to find the kettle, and took small steps towards the second floor.
Watching the woman's back disappearing around the corner of the stairs, Nan Yi shook his head, wondering if it was grandma Fang Mengyin's evil taste that made her find such a beautiful secretary for him.
If a secretary is too beautiful, it will bring unnecessary trouble. Nan Yi has always hated this kind of trouble that he shouldn't have to face.
But the resume of this woman, Ueto Masami, and Fang Mengyin's evaluation of her were so outstanding, and Nan Yi was in need of someone right now, so he really couldn't bear to say no.
You can only use it first, and if it doesn’t fit, consider changing it.
Tap, tap, the sound of people coming down the stairs was heard. Nan Yi looked at his watch. Ten minutes, not bad.
"Masami Ueto."
"Hayi."
"sit."
"Hayi."
Facing Nan Yi, Ueto Masami felt a little nervous, with all kinds of unspoken rules in the workplace filling her mind. What should she do if the man in front of her became beastly?
"According to our Oriental standards, you are very beautiful. In Tokyo, with your looks, you are good enough to debut as a singer or actress ."
"Arigato, Gozaimas [Thank you very much], thank you for the compliment, President." Ueto Masami bowed for the third time.
"Wait, I'm not complimenting you. I'm not Japanese, and I'm not interested in the unspoken rules of the workplace. Your looks are worthless to me.
I originally wanted to adjust your salary to 400,000 yen per month, but because you are too beautiful, I will temporarily adjust your salary to 300,000 yen.
After three months, I will re-evaluate you. If your work ability meets my requirements, your salary can be increased to 400,000, or even more."
When Ueto Masami heard the first half of Nan Yi's words, she felt extremely terrified. When she heard the middle part, she felt even more terrified. After hearing the end, she finally felt safe.
3.6 million yen a year. If Ueto Masami was an ordinary employee in Japan with a certain amount of work experience, this salary level would be on the high side; but if she was treated as a high-end secretary, this salary extremely low.
However, Ueto Masami is a newcomer who has just started working. Even if she is treated as a high-end talent, this salary is not too low.
Therefore, Masami Ueto is quite satisfied with this salary.
"Thank you, President. I will work hard." Another bow almost ninety degrees.
“I am not a person who likes to talk, but I like to do. As long as you work hard, I will give you the due rewards.
Annual paid leave, generous bonuses, and a house in Shibuya, Tokyo. Please listen carefully, it is not a single-family house or an apartment, but a house, a classical Japanese house.
All of the above, as long as you work hard and give your loyalty, you will have it in the future. "
"Hayi!"
